We have found miserable, terrible, and pathetic conditions among the little children, some children asking as directly for used clothes for them and also begging for food. When we ask them for their background we find out that they have no one to take care them. They are destitute children roaming and wandering barefoot on the roads with a a big bag hanging on their shoulder; collecting the waste papers, glass pieces, plastic pieces, papers full of filthy language, and wearing dirty clothes. They are always worrying about food, sleeping at dustbins and on platforms. Children in the streets and children of streets.
Some of the children work at a bar or restaurant and are being used by the owners for wrong and evil works. Some are working as dishwashers at Hotels. Some children get their food from trash bins, food which was throw out. Children fighting starvation and eating like dogs from leftovers thrown in the garbage.
The children ultimately pick up bad habits like smoking, stealing and fighting. They became ravagers and terrorists against the society because they have never received any parental love and therefore know only how to hate. Being hated by most people causes them to became evil doers. There is no one teach them what is good and that God loves them.
No parents, no education, no house, no food, no clothes, no love, no truth, no care. When I see these things, my heart feels crushed and I am in agony. I am praying for them and trying to do good if nothing else. So I have one desire for these destitute children, and that is to start an orphan home, taking care of them, giving good rehabilitation, food, clothes, and education, especially making known to them the creator of this cosmos who is our heavenly Father and presenting love of Christ to their little hearts.
As true Christians you and I are responsible for them. How do they become orphans? For some, it is the result illegal sexual contacts. Some have lost their parents due to accidents. Some are semi-orphans; father died, mother alive. Some are run-away children. I believe that our living, loving God who created you and me and these poor children will touch your heart. We are in need of your prayers, love, and compassions, because our Indian government does not recognize the needs of the Christian people…
My heart is touched by James 1:27, (“Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.”) By the grace of God we presently have 20 orphans who lost their parents. These children are growing in the Lord’s care in my presence. We also giving free education and free food to them through my prayers offering, but this is not sufficient to provide them all the things that children need.
Please feel free to contribute to this ministry to Orphans as the Holy Spirit leads you.
